Growing Workflow Efficiency by 50% and Streamlining Inventory for Kong Brothers

“The Anchanto order management interface is simple, straight forward and delivers consistent performance. We love that it allows us to customize airway bills according to marketplace requirements, and appreciate their highly responsive technical and customer support team.”

– Ice Kong, Chief Operating Officer, Kong Brothers

Operating in Malaysia for over 4 decades, Kong Brothers Enterprise is one of the largest and fastest-growing companies in the country’s footwear industry. The company has over 7 leading brands spanning across wholesale and retail sectors, focusing on men and women’s fashion and industrial footwear.

With the Malaysian e-commerce market experiencing rapid growth, Kong Brothers Enterprise saw online retail as an opportunity to reach new segments and re-engage customers through different channels.

Keen to explore the potential of e-commerce marketplaces such as Shopee, Lazada, and its official webstore, Kong Brothers launched its products online. However, a lack of centralized inventory management caused difficulty for the business to scale and manage its inventory of thousands of SKUs across different channels.

Challenges

Kong Brothers required efficient means to communicate, organize, and allocate its inventory across all channels to meet customer expectations and business priorities. But the management methods posed these challenges:

1. Time-consuming and insufficient inventory management

Handling the company’s inventory involved stacks of spreadsheets, which were tough to track and update leading to the problem of data redundancy. Often extensive amounts of time went into maintaining these sheets, making inventory management and product listing competency taxing across multiple marketplaces.

2. Inaccurate inventory data

Given the manual approach to inventory management, Kong Brothers also experienced the challenge of erroneous data. Manual data input created potential for human errors. This meant the data accuracy of inventory levels was inconsistent and causing overselling issues.

3. Disorganization and lack of control

Without an organized interface or system in place, the company could not seamlessly assemble and display data for inventory overviews. This affected inventory control, restocking, sales, and promotions.

4. Difficulty scaling with the market

Disordered internal operations caused unsatisfactory performance. Moreover, being unable to measure e-commerce performance and sales results caused obstacles to the company’s e-commerce growth and business scalability.

5. Poor stock level visibility

Manual inventory management operations did not offer real-time stock synchronization and affected the overall inventory visibility for Kong Brothers. The low visibility of inventory levels left the company open to the risk of overselling or underselling.

Solution

Looking to improve its operation flow and inventory management efficiency, Kong Brothers decided to partner with Anchanto Order Management for its centralized and automated technology. The company uses Anchanto solutions to centralize inventory data for efficient order and stock level management, product listing across marketplaces, stock projection and planning. Kong Brothers also achieved all of the following through the use of this single platform:
